In an earlier entry, a grudge match between James Storm and Chris Harris was explored. That wouldn't be the last time Storm faced off in a blood feud against a former tag-team partner, but by 2012 he was on the other side of the coin. It was Bobby Roode who turned on him this time, leading to a rivalry and series of matches.

Throughout 2012, Storm and Roode had numerous scraps. At LockDown, a Superkick from the former sent Roode tumbling from the Steel Cage, accidentally giving him the win. That heartbreak was motivation for a final match between the pair many months later at TNA's biggest annual show, Bound For Glory.

In a Street Fight, Storm would finally have his ultimate revenge on Roode. The match was filled with claret and rammed full of weapons and brawling, but that made sense given the bad blood between the duo that had been festering for close to a full year.

Those who enjoy hard-hitting weapon shots and old-school brawls will find a lot to like with this Bound For Glory classic.
